728 Acta Apostolicae Sedis - Commentarium Officiale<br />

Religious. The members of the Institutes of consecrated life consti tu te<br />

a leaven of authentic Christian living, and it is important that every<br />

diocesan congrégation of Religious should reflect its specific charism<br />

in appropriate forms of apostolic work. In your work with Religious<br />

I know that you will always show them the Church's great love for<br />

them in their lives o f service.<br />

Over the past hundred and twenty years the proclamation of the<br />

Gospel in Tanzania has been largely accomplished by missionary<br />

priests, Sisters and Brothers, who with great heroism and holiness<br />

have planted the seeds of the Church. Following their example, may<br />

you seek to further the growth of the Kingdom of God with immutable<br />

fidelity.<br />

My Brothers : be assured of my continued prayers that the Most<br />

High God will bestow upon you and upon the people and Government<br />

of Tanzania the blessings of peace, justice and prosperi ty. I commend<br />

you and your local Churches to the intercession of Mary, who is "a<br />

sign of sure hope and solace for the pilgrim people of God". 17 In the<br />

love of Jesus her Son I impart my Apostolic Blessing.<br />

Ad eos qui conventui de Biomedica scientia et iure interfuerunt coram<br />

admissos.*<br />

Illustri Signori,<br />

1. Sono lieto di accogliervi in Udienza in occasione del vostro Con­<br />

vegno Nazionale sui « problemi giuridici della Biomedicina ». A tutti<br />

rivolgo il mio saluto cordiale.<br />

Il tema, sul quale avete scelto di appuntare quest'anno le vostre<br />

riflessioni, sottolinea il fatto incontestabile che nuovi e gravi problemi<br />

si pongono oggi in campo giuridico a seguito dei progressi realizzati<br />

dalla medicina.<br />

Gli sviluppi della ricerca biomedica hanno reso possibile una cono­<br />

scenza sempre più completa del genoma umano ed oggi si tenta di<br />

disegnare la mappa e il sequenziamento di quel microcosmo biologico,<br />

che è rappresentato dal codice genetico.<br />
